Our morning started out a bit differently than most Sundays.

We had a sleepover at a friend’s house (first time for my boys) AND it was the time change, so all that combined we had  a very sleepy day.

We started the morning off by eating oranges in the sunshine.

While we grownups got to juicin’ and drank our veggies.

We dyed some jeans. (I’ll do my best to follow up with a completed project pic in the near future.)

Then we hit up a local thrift store. We might have been insane taking four kids shopping during nap time, but they were all surprisingly well-behaved.

Great friends don’t need to be asked to buckle your kids in. They just do it.

This kid decided to fall asleep AS we turned onto our street and promptly woke up again as soon as the car stopped. Grr.

I spent nap time (once they finally fell asleep) making this ornament garland. I’m so excited with how it turned out!

My favorite snack lately is bananas with honey roasted almond butter. So delicious.

The exhaustion finally overwhelmed me and I crashed on the couch. What is it about mommy laying down that makes kids need your immediate and full attention?!

Lastly we decided to take our dinner up on the hill above our house to try to catch a glimpse of the comet. My husband and his love for astronomy keeps our life interesting.

How was your Sunday? Hope you’re feeling refreshed and ready to start the week tomorrow!

On The Street

Now I know there is a lot of controversy over denim on denim, but I think Courtney pulls the look off perfectly.

And I love how she added a scarf as a belt.

So simple, but so incredibly chic.

Maxi Dreams

Posted on

Have you ever dreamed of an article of clothing that you would like to add to your wardrobe, but don’t know where to get said article?

I have dreamed about a long, flowy maxi skirt in an orange-ish pink color for awhile, but couldn’t find one anywhere.

Well, the other night I was near a Styles for Less and I got a weird idea to check there. As I walked in, I immediately saw my dream maxi skirt hanging on the “Just Arrived” rack. I was beyond stoked that this piece of clothing that I “dreamed” up actually did exist!

It is incredibly comfortable and makes me feel so feminine.
